Hi all,
Yet another physicist thinking about making the jump into the quant world. I'm two years out of my PhD and have a nice gig in industry (nearby in NJ), but I'm fascinated by the quant world and have begun preparing myself to be ready for interviews (Joshi's Mathematical Finance and C++ book).
I guess my main question is this: With the proliferation of MFE degrees and certificates, does a physics PhD like myself need additional formal education, MFE certificates, etc.?
